number of banks, as much as ~ ,OOO,DOO Win
each bank. upon the deposit Of 100000 of
per cent bonds for every ~ 10 900 IN cash
received from Government. is greatly praised

for which Democrats in Congress- almost with
out exception. would have denounced and been
ready 10 impcach a Republican Secretary OF the
Treasury. had any Republican Admin ,trltion
done 4 thing so open to criticism. That IS
the lust test. Papers that are nothing II not
partisan must be expected to applaud this
course as loudly as banks that are nothing if
rot speculative. But would Secretary Sherman
or Secretary Window have been commended

act
Grant that the position Of the Secretary,
through the misconduct or Incompetence Of his
pa,iy. had become very difficult one. He
was anxious to get the surplus into circulation,
hut bond purchases offered an uncertain and
most unpopular mode Of doing so. Apparently
he Il 50 wants to initiate the currency, whenever
there is a cry for Z" more money" or whcncyci
